DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0027] The present invention is described below in further detail with reference to the drawings of the description and embodiments.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 1, a stage lamp 20 based on the TCP/IP protocol provided by the present invention comprises a data parsing module 21, a drive module 22 and a light emitting module 23; the data parsing module 21 parses a received control instruction to obtain a corresponding control signal; the drive module 22 and the light emitting module 23 respectively enable the stage lamp 20 to perform a corresponding mechanical action (such as rotating and orbital operation) according to the control signal to output an effect of the stage lamp to a specific geographic location and emit light of corresponding color and brightness. The data parsing module 21 can also receive image data of a video image and a hand drawn graphic or picture from the user, parses the image data, and then redisplays the image data on a wall, a floor or other specific place in a real-time and synchronous manner through outputting optical projection, thus realizing various effects to satisfy various requirements of clients for different places.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 2, the present invention also provides a stage lamp control system based on the TCP/IP protocol, comprising a control terminal 10 and a plurality of stage lamps 20 shown in FIG. 1 that access a same local area network, wherein the master control terminal 10 and the stage lamps 20 are based on an embedded operating system of android, linux, wices or windows.

[0030] The control terminal 10 is a tablet, mobile phone or computer (PC, Personal Computer), and the like. A dedicated lamp control operation module 11 is installed on the control terminal 10, and a user controls the stage lamp by performing a corresponding operation on the lamp control operation module 11, and sends a control instruction of the operation according to an agreed data communication format to the stage lamp 20 via wireless wifi or a wired network based on the TCP/IP protocol

[0031] In the present invention, a quantity of the control terminal 10 may be one or more, and different control terminals 10 control different stage lamps to implement a same operation or control same stage lamps to implement different operations. For example, in a same stage lamp control system provided by the present invention, a control terminal A controls a stage lamp A1 to turn on, a control terminal B controls a stage lamp B1 to turn on, and a control terminal C controls a stage lamp A1 and a stage lamp B1 to turn.

[0032] The stage lamp 20 parses the received control instruction to obtain a corresponding control signal, and performs a corresponding operation according to the control signal, so as to implement various light effects of the stage lamp.

[0033] In the present invention, the lamp control operation module 11 is multi-platform control software of windows, android and ios, which covers systems operating in present mainstream hardware media terminals, making it convenient for users to make choices based on their demands. Meanwhile, a building geographic information cad modeling unit is arranged in the lamp control operation module. The building geographic information cad modeling unit carries out modeling for the physical locations of an actually existing huge building and all stage lamps 20 in the huge building and shows their multi-dimensional graphs on a tiny display screen of the control terminal in a virtual manner. In this manner, a user can trigger and control all the stage lamps 20 merely by clicking the screen by means of a mouse or by way of touching. During operation, the user not only has the perception of an overall situation of planning a strategy in the tent and gaining a decisive victory a thousand miles away, but also utilizes a great number of triggering mechanisms, which reduces the intervention of manual mechanical operation that is time consuming and laborious, thus liberating labor force and reducing man-made operation errors; meanwhile, when the physical location of a stage lamp 20 in the building changes, the stage lamp 20 will send its current position information to the control terminal 10 which makes modifications to the position of the stage lamp 20 in the building model according to the position information.

[0034] In the present invention, the control terminal 10 can also send the image data of the video image and the hand drawn graphic in on-site, real-time and synchronous presentation or picture from the user to the stage lamp 20 in real time, wherein the data parsing module 21 of the stage lamp 20 parses these received image data and redisplays them on the video image and the hand drawn graphic or picture in a real-time and synchronous manner through outputting optical projection. Herein, the control terminal 10 and the stage lamp 20 adopt a combined working transmission way of Realtime Transport Protocol RTP and Realtime Transport Control Protocol RTCP to transmit the image data of the video image, and the hand drawn graphic and picture. Based on the above-mentioned two protocols, the present invention subdivides and realizes data sent by the control terminal, which can reliably transmit the data to the stage lamp 20 with the minimum delay.

[0035] As can be seen, the data parsing module 21 of the stage lamp 20 of the present invention, which acts as the receiving and parsing module of system data and instructions, is a pivot connecting the control intent of the lamp control operation module 11 and the execution way of the control and execution circuits (comprising the drive module 22 and the light emitting module 23) of the stage lamp. It not only takes the responsibility to convert a user instruction into a specific physical control signal, such as converting instructions which control the on-off actions of a lamp, the effect of light color and the turning of the base motor of a stage lamp into corresponding hardware signals (such as gpio high-low electrical levels required to control the on-off actions of the lamp and the PWM signal required to control the effect of light color or the driving of the motor), but can also parse such real-time data as the received video image, hand drawn graphic and picture and redisplay them through simultaneous projection.

[0036] In the present invention, the stage lamp 20 also comprises a power supply module providing power for all the modules of the stage lamp; wherein the parsing module 21 comprises a DLP processing unit; the drive unit 22 comprises a base motor drive unit; the light emitting module 23 comprises a light source drive unit; the base motor drive unit controls to turn mechanically according to the control signal parsed by parsing module 21 so as to output tan effect of the stage lamp to a specific geographic location; the DLP processing unit digitizes the data signal of a video image, hand drawn graphic or picture output by the control terminal 10 to obtain a digital signal; and the light source drive unit outputs a light source of corresponding color and brightness according to the digital signal output by the DLP processing unit, and projects light through a corresponding light transmission path to realize the projection and redisplay of such image data as a video image, and hand drawn graphic or picture.

[0037] It is apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations of the present invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. It is intended that the present invention covers the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
